 After testing with both suggestions (local echo 'E0' , and D3 for modem reset), I have
 found that both work better together, than either one alone. So the problem after 2.5
 weeks of testing is now solved.
 
         this works:-
 
         ATE0&C1&D3&k3
         Stored in NovRam in the modem under Profile Z1 with &W1
         Uugetty init: ATZ1

You need to set the modem up so that it resets when CD drops,
probably &D3 and &C1

After testing with both suggestions (local echo 'E0' , and D3 for modem reset), I have 
found that both work better together, than either one alone. So the problem after 2.5 
weeks of testing is now solved. 

	this works:-

	ATE0&C1&D3&k3
	Stored in NovRam in the modem under Profile Z1 with &W1
	Uugetty init: ATZ1
